Abstract

The phenomenon of fast fashion has become a global challenge with widespread impacts on the environment and social ethics, including within church communities. This study aims to analyze the clothing consumption behavior of women in the KWKI group at KGPM Sidang Elim Tuminting, and to evaluate how the church can respond to the fast fashion trend from a Christian theological perspective. Using a descriptive qualitative approach through focus group discussions and participatory observation, the findings reveal that although many members have high consumption habits, they are open to transformation when spiritual values such as simplicity, love, and ecological responsibility are emphasized. The clothing collection and redistribution activity initiated by KWKI represents a tangible expression of faith working through love. This research highlights the strategic role of the church in shaping a responsible and sustainable spirituality of consumption.

Abstract

Contemporary church ministry is often trapped in a seasonal pattern, with increased activity only during major events like Christmas and Easter, while stagnating at other times. This phenomenon indicates a fundamental problem in leadership patterns that are not poverty-oriented. This article analyzes the roots of seasonal church ministry through a qualitative-descriptive approach and theological reflection based on Osmer's framework. Literature reviews by Barna, Maxwell, Banks & Ledbetter, as well as the leadership principles of Jesus Christ, show that seasonality is eliminated by reactive leadership that lacks a long-term vision, minimal spiritual training, and a weak ministerial cadre system. As a solution, this article offers a sustainable leadership model that emphasizes a year-round discipleship vision, ministerial training and regeneration, systematic ministry evaluation, and the spiritual example of leaders. This model is believed to help churches experience stable growth, establish a consistent ministry rhythm, and present relevant evidence to the world. Thus, sustainable leadership is a strategic and theological approach to addressing seasonal ministry and strengthening the mission of the church today.
